Azur Performances; cover, cost and conditions

Azur Performances is a name whose entire range, as far as our records go, belongs to the 1980s. We found no reliable source on where the yard was based, when it was founded or who drew the boats, so this page sticks to what the model data shows. That data reveals an unusual mix: big cruising sailboats and two motor yachts under one badge. The model names start with Sea, Sun or Sunsea, followed by a number close to the length in feet, so a Sea 42 measures 12.65 metres and a Sea 51 15.48 metres.

Our model records list six Azur Performances designs, four sailing yachts and two motor yachts. Under sail there are the Sea 42 at 12.65 metres, the Sea 51 at 15.48 metres and the Sunsea 46 and Sunsea 46 MS at 14 metres each. Under power come the 11 metre Sun 36 and the 17.7 metre Seastar 58. The earliest build year is 1979 for the Sea 51, the latest 1989 for the Sunsea 46.

Every one of these boats is now a mature yacht of more than eleven metres, the kind that lives on a marina berth and heads out for coastal passages or longer cruises. On a hull of this age, engines, rigging and interior have often been renewed, so a careful owner keeps records of every refit. The Seastar 58 in particular needs a yard with a lift able to take a heavy motor yacht for the winter ashore.

What this means for the cover

For the Sunsea 46, Sea 42, Sun 36 by Azur Performances and 3 more series there is no list price

left.

That is why we work with an agreed value: you state the figure, we agree it,

and in a total loss exactly that amount is paid, with no deduction for wear.

For the Sunsea 46, Sea 42, Sea 51 by Azur Performances and further series:

On sailing yachts the rig and the underwater hull are the expensive parts:

a dismasting quickly costs a quarter of the boat,

and osmosis counts as wear and is covered by no hull policy.

For the Sun 36, Seastar 58 by Azur Performances series:

On motor yachts the drive and the electronics together make up about half the value.

Both belong in the valuation, otherwise the sum insured is too low.
